Glasgow Travel Guide

Getting Around Glasgow

Glasgow''s city centre is compact and easily explored on foot,
but public transport will be needed to reach some of the major
attractions, which are further out. The integrated transport
network includes a reliable but confusing bus system with
connections to the underground and train network. Some routes
operate limited services throughout the night. The simple
underground system, also known as the Clockwork Orange, has two
circular routes that are easy to understand; this is the best way
to get between the city centre and the West End. The suburban train
network is fast and efficient. There are various passes available
for all forms of transport, including the family Daytripper pass
combining underground, rail, bus and ferry service. Taxis are
readily available and provide excellent, if fairly expensive,
service. A car is not necessary in the centre, and it is often
easier to get around using public transport; car users can make use
of the park-and-ride system at underground stations outside the
city centre.
